Our intention is to rapidly expand our wellness and beauty platform by delivering more value to customers, consumers and partners alike.”

Booker Software is a cloud-based business management platform for salons and spas, and the provider of Frederick, an automated marketing software for wellness businesses, according to a news release. The company has 180 employees, and in 2017, it made approximately $25 million in subscription and payments revenue.

The acquisition will add approximately 10,000 salons and spas to the Mindbody marketplace.

With the new acquisition, Mindbody will employ around 1,580 people around the world. The company reported $182 million in total revenue last year.
